Don't hamfist it into the HTML syntax. Twig or Pug/Jade are the best ones I've seen. C#'s Razor seemed pretty good too in the brief time I used it.

If you have some other way of being able to view an unrendered template in a browser and have it display sanely, I'd be very interested to know about it.
